  • Les Résultats Des Grandes Banques Internationales En 2005 Et Au Premier Semestre 2006
    Les résultats des grandes banques internationales en 2005 et au premier semestre 2006 Corinne DAUCHY, Catherine GOUTEROUX Secrétariat général de la Commission bancaire Service des Études bancaires En 2005, le maintien de la croissance économique mondiale à un niveau élevé a eu un impact positif sur les résultats des principaux groupes bancaires des grands pays industriels. La progression des revenus, d’intérêts comme de commissions, et la bonne maîtrise des coûts d’exploitation se sont traduites par des résultats brut d’exploitation en forte hausse. Parallèlement, le coût du risque de crédit s’est inscrit en baisse dans la plupart des pays. Une légère dégradation a toutefois touché les pays anglo-saxons, dans le domaine du crédit aux particuliers, en relation notamment avec le contexte de resserrement monétaire en cours dans ces pays. Au fi nal, le résultat net de l’ensemble des groupes bancaires de l’échantillon s’est accru de 43 %. Leur niveau de rentabilité s’est encore amélioré par rapport à 2004. Dans ce contexte économique dynamique, les opérations transfrontalières en Europe se sont accélérées et les stratégies d’acquisitions ciblées sur des marchés porteurs ont continué à se développer (cf. annexe 1). Les groupes français ont été particulièrement actifs depuis le début de l’année 2006 avec un montant moyen d’acquisitions de 13 milliards d’euros (hors la transaction récemment annoncée du Crédit agricole avec Banca Intesa), soit plus de 50 % des montants investis entre 1999 et juillet 2006. Au premier semestre 2006, la tendance sous-jacente à la bonne tenue des résultats de 2005 demeure, même si, à l’horizon 2007, les perspectives pourraient être moins favorables.

  • Citigroup in Cameroon
    Citigroup in Cameroon: Capturing Growth Opportunities in a Regional Economic Powerhouse A Capstone Project Prepared with the assistance of Professor Richard Linowes from the Kogod School of Business at American University by Brice Ngameni Spring 2012 in fulfillment of the requirements for American University's University honors designation Abstract: This examination of socio-economic trends and realities in Cameroon sheds light on the tremendous growth potential that the economic powerhouse of the Central African region presents to Citibank in a variety of sectors ranging from mobile banking, remittance transfer services, to project finance. In the wake of the financial crisis which almost brought to its knees the 200 year-old financial institution, Citibank has engaged in profound soul-searching, seeking to define a strategy in line with its core competitive advantage. This competitive advantage lies primarily in the unmatched global reach of its branch network and wide array of proprietary applications. To leverage these assets requires a somewhat bolder approach towards banking opportunities in Africa in general, and Cameroon in particular. This paper prescribes a number of actionable recommendations to position Citibank as major player in the relatively unchartered banking landscape of Cameroon. Ngameni 2 Memorandum To: Professor Richard Linowes From: Brice Ngameni Date: 5/21/2012 Re: Citigroup in Cameroon: Capturing Growth Opportunities in a Regional Banking Hub About Cameroon: Cameroon is a West African country located on the gulf of Guinea. It is bordered to the South by the republics of Gabon, Equatorial Guinea and Congo; to the North by Nigeria and to the East by Chad and the Central African Republic (CAR).
